Cost: $199
they say 5-7 hp but 5.0 Mag. just tested it and picked up 11.2 rwhp off of it with minor bolt ons.

Im skeptical about that piece of alum. My guess is that they did a dyno run while the motor was hot. Then 2 hours cool down added the spacer then redynoed. I cant imagine that it would work that well. Just because it works on carbed cars doesnt mean its the same for a efi setup. By looking at the piece u can almost make one yourself(know anyone w/ a dremel or a someone w/ access to a Bridgeport?) I would wait and let someone else buy it and get their opinions. -Mark

I found it odd that they picked up that much. Oh well they dont have one for a Bullitt intake so it doesnt matter to me.

I had one made for my '98 with '99 motor. peak improvements were negligible, 3 ft lbs and lost 1hp, but she gained 5-8 ft lbs across the lower end, and i can definitely feel the difference. improved greatly under the dyno curve...much flatter lines.
